A space so vital

and vulnerable

yet it receives

the least amount

of care and thought

We are all born with it yet

little is taught

how to control

how to monitor

how to filter

the traffic in which

effects this space

Everything we do

everything we seek

everything we choose

alters the state

and determines the path

of which our mindset camps

We may not physically see

the atmosphere changes

but we certainly reap

the harvest of

what's been planted

Wandering thoughts creep up

in times when we're alone

Voices shout

when all else

is silenced

Spirits arise

in the midst

of searching and seeking

What are they telling you?

What have you been feeding

when all is well?

Who are you tuning into

in your daily walk?

What prepares a person the most

is knowing

who identifies them

What builds a person the most

is what you're feeding

your values and beliefs

What keeps a person stable

when attacks come

is only seeking

the One who created them

We are surrounded

by many voices

by many noises

by many choices

But what are

we keeping

as our core?

What we seek

What we tune into

What we hear

determines this very answer

Don't forget to protect

the most vulnerable space in which

ultimately determines how we react

in moments

of vulnerability
